Inclusive Marketing
“Inclusive Marketing is an approach that looks
at the marginalized not only BOP
consumers but also as producers/ suppliers. This approach uses
innovative co-creation and appropriate
partnerships offering promise to add
economic value to goods and services contributed by the
marginalized. It therefore impacts
poverty positively by improving the quality
of life of the marginalized.”
